Curtain assembly

Abstract

A curtain assembly includes an elongated horizontal holding frame, a pair of spaced-apart hanging units, a curtain sheet, and an elongated horizontal plastic strip. The holding frame has an upper portion with a dovetail groove formed along the entire length thereof, and a hollow lower portion which is integrally formed with the upper portion and which has a bottom wall unit through which a slit is formed along the entire length of the frame. The hanging units are sleeved respectively around the holding frame and are adapted to be mounted on a wall so as to suspend the holding frame above a window that is formed through the wall. Each of the hanging units has a dovetail tongue engaged slidably in the groove of the holding frame. The sheet extends through the slit of the frame and has a folded annular upper end portion accommodated in the lower portion of the holding frame. The plastic strip is inserted detachably into and attached to the annular folded upper end portion of the sheet and has a length approximate to that of the frame so that the folded annular upper end portion of the sheet cannot drop from the frame through the slit. The folded annular upper end portion of the sheet and the strip can be passed through the slit for removal from the frame when turned into a vertical position.

I claim: 
     
       1. A curtain assembly, comprising: an elongated horizontal holding frame having an upper portion with a dovetail groove formed along an entire length of said holding frame, and a hollow lower portion which is integrally formed with the upper portion and which has a bottom wall unit through which a slit is formed along the entire length of said holding frame;   a pair of spaced-apart hanging units sleeved respectively around said holding frame and adapted to be hung on a wall so as to suspend said holding frame above a window formed through said wall, each of said hanging units having a dovetail tongue engaged slidably in the groove of said holding frame;   a curtain sheet extending through said slit of said holding frame and having a folded annular upper end portion accommodated in said lower portion of said holding frame so as to shield the window; and   an elongated horizontal plastic strip inserted detachably into and attached to the folded annular upper end portion of said sheet and having a length approximate to that of said frame, said plastic strip being disposed for preventing said folded annular upper end portion of said sheet from dropping from said holding frame through said slit, said plastic strip permitting removal of said folded annular upper end portion of said sheet from said holding frame by passing through said slit when turned into a vertical position, whereby, in assembly, after said plastic sheet is inserted into said folded annular upper end portion of said sheet, said folded annular upper end portion of said sheet can be easily passed through said slit by virtue of rigidity of said plastic strip so as to move into said lower portion of said holding frame,   wherein said frame and said hanging units are made of plastic, said slit dividing said bottom wall unit of said lower portion of said frame into two inclined wall sections, said inclined wall sections having upper ends between which said slit is defined, each of said hanging units including an integral vertical plate located under said slit so as to overlap an intermediate portion of said curtain sheet on said vertical plate, and an inclined pressing plate having a lower end integrally formed with remaining portion of said hanging unit, an intermediate portion which is depressed by a lower end portion of one of said inclined wall sections of said bottom wall unit of said holding frame, and an upper end pressing the intermediate portion of said curtain sheet against said vertical plate so as to assist in supporting said curtain sheet on said lower portion of said holding frame.
